As a native of Southern California, I humbly concede that I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to…read moreMexican food. Weather enjoying a Carne Asada burrito at one of the fast food stands that ends in -erto's, enjoying a meal at long, gone places like Acapulco, or bellying up to some swanky new wave fusion place with rainbow colored tortilla chips and "salsa flights," I've tried them all. So when I say that El Torito bar and Grill is a good Mexican food restaurant, that should mean something. Moreover, is someone who has visited 49 of the 50 states by car, with a family of five in tow, we've definitely stopped at our fair share of Mexican food restaurants... Some of them were amazing, and some of them were no Bueno. But this place is an honest to goodness, authentic Mexican food restaurant. Your first clue: the rice and beans. I know, they come with everything... But if you don't know how to make real rice and beans, the rest of it really doesn't matter. This place knows what's up. The burritos, Carne Asada, fajitas, combination plates with things like enchiladas and chile rellenos-- everything here is delicious. Modestly priced, but for the only game in town place, it's a pretty good deal at 20 or 30 bucks a head. Service has always been very good, and the shot of tequila when they bring the bill out is always a nice touch, especially as you're about to include the propina. :) The vibe inside is laid-back, with casual visitors, families, and groups like us... People visiting from out of town who are here to enjoy some local fishing, and the welcoming comfort of local business. Just a few steps from our favorite hotel in town, we will always plan to enjoy at least one evening meal here together when we visit Omak.

The restaurant itself is taking on a fresh new look and the ambience is special. If you are looking for an exceptional meal, try one of their combination offerings. Prices are decent and the portions are more than adequate. Expect to be greeted at the door by either Homaro or Teresa and seated at a clean and comfortable booth or table. You will love the abundent supply of salsa, green cabbage and basket of chips. Margaritas are a fantastic drink to compliment your meal. Our favorite Mexican restaurant in Omak. You will find the El Portal, in the shopping center close to the Safeway super market.

This place is super good and very reasonably priced. We tried the street tacos, burrito, rice and…read morebeans, and tostada. They are the best we have tried in Chelan, Twisp and Omak. Burrito was nice sized and had lettuce and cabbage and avocado along with the regular fixings. Tostada was very deluxe with sliced avocadoes and was delicious. We had pork and carne asada. Liked both a lot. Pork was especially tasty. Rice and beans were good. I like my beans a little saltier but I also realize these are more authentic. We will be back many more times!!! It is located just passed McDonalds and The cannabis shop. Super nice ladies work there. Pretty sure it is a mother and daughter!!

Not bad; absolutely inedible. Wife said it had a distinct cooked in rancid old cooking oil taste. Both had fried rice. Looked like fried rice, but near mush consistency. Flavor was bland. My sweet and sour chicken was just, ok. Once the dry unglazed pieces at the bottom were dredged into the pooled sauce. It seems the cook got lazy. Last time for us. This makes about 3 out of about 6 times we threw something major out. That's on us. We had hope. PS, you can see by the reviews that something changed since six years ago. But the current posts are consistently bad. Stay away.

The servings were very generous and the food was outstanding! My chicken quesadilla came with plenty of meat, toppings, and fresh avocado. It really hit the spot and tasted very fresh.

The tables were covered with a tent so there was nice shade. They had a variety of drinks as well. Right near a Safeway if you need to stop for gas or other essentials on a road trip.
